The Medicare GLP-1 Bridge program may help eligible people get certain GLP-1 medications for weight loss for $50 a month. The program is planned to run from July 1, 2026, through December 31, 2027.

What is a GLP-1 Medication?

GLP-1 medications are prescription medications commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes. Some GLP-1 medications can also be used to help with weight loss.

This program covers Wegovy®, Foundayo®, and Zepbound® KwikPens. This program does not cover all GLP-1 medications.

Who Can Join?

This program is for people using a GLP-1 medication for weight loss. People taking a GLP-1 medication to only treat type 2 diabetes are not eligible.
